Sun protection is important, you know this. Taking your make-up off every two hours to reapply your sunscreen and wearing it back is stressful and impossible, you know this too. However, there’s a way around this conundrum—make-up products that bring sun protection properties with them.

While wearing make-up with SPF doesn’t mean you get to avoid that first layer of sunscreen every morning, it does save you a lot of trouble. Go on with your daily skincare routine as always and follow it up with these make-up options that come with sun care benefits. Primers, foundations, pressed powders and even bronzers come with SPF which makes them ideal choices for when you’re spending an entire day in the sun—just imagine the horror of a sunburn or redoing your make-up in such a situation. If your only sun exposure are your hours of commute to work and you’re primarily staying indoors, the SPF in your make-up could actually be enough to take you through the day.
